DEST (FTP server) statement

Use the DEST statement to specify the NJE destination to which the files are routed when the server receives a STOR, STOU, or APPE command. Using the DEST statement allows you to send data sets to other users on machines connected on a network job entry (NJE) network rather than storing them at the server.
